Criminal Core

by Nick Broad

  The effect in all three of them was extreme and immediate. The Shay I’d hit tensed and screamed with pleasure - the other one that was free fell to the floor on her hands and knees, panting and groaning. In her rack, Shay arched her back and howled with bliss, her eyes rolling back in her head.

  “Oh fuck Daddy yes,” Shay whimpered, her pussy and thighs a creamy mess. “Hurt me again! Spank me harder!”

  “You’re fucking crazy,” I said, my face lighting up. “I like it.”

  I took my place behind Shay, the prod turned off for the time being. I ran it up and down her back, pausing between her shoulder blades then letting it trail down to the round curve of her ass. She shivered with delight at every touch, groaning for more. My cock pressed into her folds as I brought the prod down to the point where we met, the tip nearly grazing her asshole.

  I grabbed her hip with my free hand for leverage. “I’m going to fuck your brains out,” I grunted, watching both of her clones twist with delight at the words. “Going to treat you the way you really deserve...”

  I flicked the button on the prod for a fraction of a second. That was more than enough.

  The pressure of my cock and the mingled pain and pleasure of the prod sent Shay right over the edge. Her clones writhed as she came, whimpering and sobbing the word Daddy over and over again as a release unlike anything I’d ever seen from her coursed through her body. I felt it, too - the prod was close enough that it shocked me at the same time. Shay hadn’t been kidding about the pleasure - it hurt like a bitch, but it also set all of nerves on fire at the same time.

  A man could get addicted to a thing like that easily, I reckoned. So I decided right then and there that I’d leave the pain to Shay, and get my pleasure from her body.

  I thrust into her quivering pussy, burying myself hilt-deep in her tightness. Shay’s cunt was amazing, a tight, wet sheathe that fit around me like a second skin. I brought my hand down on her ass again and again as I fucked her, the sounds and smell of sex filling the dungeon.

  “Both of you come over here,” I growled at her clones. “Now.”

  They obeyed quickly, stripping off what was left of their suits and joining their Mistress. They stood on either side of Shay, their asses stuck out and their dripping pussies gushing underneath. Three identical slits waited for me, hot and tight and everything I ever wanted.

  I grabbed the left clone and gave her a few thrusts, pumping like a piston. And while I did, the prod shocked the other two Shay’s asses. All three came like fucking fountains, screaming with bliss as the clone I was fucking ground her tight walls around my shaft. I went on like that for so long I lost track, shocking Shay into orgasm while using her three tight bodies for my pleasure.

  Finally I couldn’t stand it any longer - I needed to cum. I grabbed Shay’s cuffs and loosened them, while her clones did the same to her feet. All three girls knelt before me - three perfect blonde goddesses, begging for my load.

  “Cum for us, Daddy,” the three Shays begged, their tongues and lips all over my shaft and balls. “Cover us in your cum...”

  Fireworks exploded behind my eyes as I sailed over the edge. Still I refused to close them. The sight of three Shays whimpering and groaning as my cum shot all over their faces and tits was the hottest fucking thing I’d ever seen. It was the kind of memory I wanted to burn into my brain forever, so that I’d always be able to pull it up with crystal-clear clarity whenever I wanted.

  Dimly, as I came down from my peak, I wondered if that was something I could actually do.

  “Thank you, Daddy,” one of the clones purred as the pleasure ebbed. She passed my cock to another Shay, the three of them blurring until I had no idea which was the ‘real’ one. Maybe there was no real one.

  “We love you, Daddy,” another added, running her tongue along the underside of my balls. “We love how you fuck us. We love how you hurt us. All we want is to be your hot little girls forever...”

  “We’re all you need,” the third said, and the wink in her eyes made me certain that this last one was the Shay. “We can be your sexy little harem girls forever, Daddy - we can suck and fuck you every day, however you want...”

  Now that I was thinking clearly again, I tucked my cock back into my shipsuit. “That was...wow,” I said, looking around the chamber. There was so much stuff here - Shay and I could have increasingly weird, kinky sex down here for years and never do the same thing twice. It was a playground. I knew she’d brought me down here deliberately, choosing the exact perfect moment. She wanted me to know that she could give all this to me. Forever.

  It made me suspicious.

  “The reactor,” I said, looking for some kind of back door out of Shay’s sex dungeon. “Where is it, exactly?”

  Two of the clones turned to Shay. She sighed and rolled her eyes.

  “Really? You don’t want another round?” She took in the whole room with an expansive gesture. “There’s so much stuff we could be doing, Daddy. I’ve been such a bad girl - I’m going to need lots more punishment than that...”

  “That was hot when I was tearing your clothes off,” I said, glancing at the rack. “Really fucking hot, if I’m being honest. I definitely want you to do it again - but it’s not really helping things right now.”

  Shay’s expression went flat. “You’re really only thinking about that stupid reactor, aren’t you? The fact that I just gave you your very first foursome doesn’t mean anything to you?”

  “Oh, it does,” I said, grinning. “It really does.”

  Shay flashed a sweet smile and came forward. “Then pick me,” she said, batting her eyelashes. “Look at this place, Noah - this is everything you’ve ever wanted. Right here. I’m a one-woman harem - just look at me.” She glanced back at her two copies, frowning. “Was it the clones? I know they look exactly like me - I can do better than that, I promise! Once we save up some energy credits, I can make whatever clone bodies you want! I can look like actresses or models you liked back on Earth. Or porn stars. Or any girl you had a crush on...”

  The thought of it made my cock pulse and my cheeks burn. “That...sounds really fucking hot,” I said, keeping control with an effort. “And you’d be able to do all that for me a lot more efficiently if we get that reactor working-”

  “You fucking...” Shay snarled with frustration. “I broke the reactor, okay? It was me!”

  I stared at her, stunned. “You did what?”

  Shay sighed, her shoulders sagging. “I decommissioned it,” she admitted, looking down at the space between her feet. “Look, it wasn’t a big deal at the time! We had the Beta and the Gamma reactors, not to mention the solar sail. There was plenty of energy to go around!”

  “Even so,” I said, shaking my head. “Shay. That’s huge...”

  She pulled a face, her bottom lip trembling. She looked like she might burst into tears at any moment. “There was nowhere else on the ship I could do it,” she blurt out, her hands shaking. “I wanted somewhere I could have fun - and I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but our ‘crew chambers’ are about the size of a fucking shoebox.” She sighed and sat down on a metal table a few feet away, kicking away a riding crop with her heel. “I wanted private chambers, and there was nowhere else on the ship that they’d fit. You can understand that, right? Don’t you want to have just a little bit of personal space sometimes?”

  “I...I can understand that,” I finally agreed, looking around the room. “But it does put us in one hell of a bind.”

  “Only if you let it,” Shay said, her eyes lighting up. “Stay here with me, Noah. Those bitches will get the picture eventually and leave the station. In a week, you won’t even miss them. You’ll be too busy fucking me in the ass while making me call you Daddy to even care...”

  My hands went to my hips. “That’s where you’re wrong, Shay,” I said, shaking my head. “I would care. This crew is a team now - more than a team. I’m not choosing any of you to be exclusive with - I’d never do that to Meiko or Rub
y.” Suddenly I felt very, very tired. “I need to go check out the Gamma reactor.”

  “Stay,” Shay begged, all of her clones moving in unison. “Please. Look, I’m sorry. Don’t hate me. I’ll be a good girl, I just...I need time to adjust to this whole ‘harem’ thing. I’m not used to sharing. AI’s aren’t good at it.”

  “I understand that,” I said, pulling her close. I hugged her tight, wanting to think the best of her. “I think it’s best if we both cool off. After I check out Gamma...maybe we can have that round two you asked for?”

  Shay grinned. “Yes, Daddy. I’ll be waiting here teasing my little princess pussy, waiting for you to come punish me again...”

  Holy shit, I thought as the door to Beta Reactor shut behind me a few minutes later. That’s one mental image that’s going to be making me hard for quite a while...

  I was going to need it. Because going to Gamma meant traipsing through all that muck again. Not to mention keeping an eye out for that thing that had destroyed Shay’s drones...

  Fifteen: Infestation

  “Damn it,” I said, staring into the inky darkness of the Gamma cell block. “I was really hoping I wasn’t going to have to come down here again.”

  Next to me, Meiko adjusted the sword at her back and squared her shoulders. “It’s not so bad.”

  “Easy for you to say. You can just dance over top of that shit without scratching it. Meanwhile I’m a half-ton robot who’s gonna have flakes of I don’t even know what all over my legs for the rest of the day.”

  A hand on my shoulder made me turn. Ruby grinned up at me, a filtration mask dangling just over her cleavage. We weren’t sure if she was going to need it, being a Fae and all, but it never hurt to take precautions.

  “Don’t worry, Master,” she said, winking. “I’ll be happy to get you cleaned up when we’re done.”

  Meiko rolled her eyes. It was no secret that the red headed fairy was completely devoted to me, but even knowing that, sometimes she could be a little over the top.

  “I’m going to take you up on that,” I said, matching her smile with one of my own. “I’m still not looking forward to this, though.”

  It was clear that Meiko had heard more than enough, however. “Should we start here,” she asked, putting one foot on the edge of the black expanse and cocking an eyebrow, “or do you want to start clearing it further down first?”

  I cleared my throat and reached behind my back. “Might as well get started,” I grumbled, my fingers feeling for the handle of the vibrosaw. It was strapped to my back, and to the casual observer it would have looked like nothing so much as an old-Earth chainsaw with all the spiky parts removed. This was a new piece of future tech. According to Chirrup and the girls, as soon as I switched it on it would generate a high-frequency forcefield that could cut through anything. It was as strong as a lightsaber, able to pulverize the growths in Gamma sector down to atoms.

  Or so I’d been told.

  I unslung the saw uneasily, staring up and down its length. It was surprisingly light.

  “I hope this thing works,” I said, flicking the on switch. “Otherwise this is going to get messy-”

  A halo of light exploded from the saw in all directions.

  I let out a surprised little cry and nearly dropped the saw. It vibrated in my hand like an old arcade grip tester machine, and all around the shaft of the saw bright blue diamonds flew so quickly they looked like a continuous line. This thing was dangerous. It could kill somebody.

  It was fun as hell.

  “Aww yes!” I grunted, slashing at the morass of black material. “Finally, some firepower!”

  The saw hit the chitin and kicked up a cloud of tiny black particles. They floated in the air for the briefest moment, then faded out of existence like smoke from a campfire. There was a huge gash where I’d hit the growth, and through it, I could see the floor of the cell block.

  I switched off the saw, gawking. After a moment, Meiko nudged my shoulder.

  “Cool, huh?” The obake’s eyes glowed a faint amber. “You boys and your toys...honestly, hundreds of years of space exploration and nothing in the human male ever changes...”

  I grinned and switched the saw back on. “Let’s get to work,” I said.

  And I did. For the next hour, I slashed and sliced away huge chunks of the strange black chitin, cutting through its scales and disintegrating it with the saw. Meiko and Ruby acted as scouts, as one of them could walk across the stuff without issue and the other could fly. They kept lookout while I worked my way through the cell blocks.

  I didn’t clear the place out completely. There wasn’t time for that - we were heading for the reactor. The sooner the three of us got it working, the sooner the solar sail would be back on the station - and I could start upgrading the prison for real.

  We were pausing for a drink of water on the Gamma stairs when Ruby asked a question.

  “Why isn’t Shay here?” the busty Fae asked, sipping her nectar. “Two androids with two vibrosaws would get this done twice as fast, Master.”

  She was absolutely right. As if on cue, a film reel unspooled in my mind - Shay handcuffed in her pleasure dungeon, begging for me to whip and spank her while I fucked her brains out...

  What a kinky bitch, I thought, a pang shooting through me. Shame about the trust issues, though.

  When I didn’t say anything, Ruby’s eyes got bigger. “Master? Are you listening?”

  At the top of the stairs, Meiko finished her water and tossed the bottle backwards into the half-cleared cell block. “I know why she’s not here,” she said flatly.

  “You know how she is,” I said, deflecting. “She can be kind of moody sometimes, right?”

  Ruby was all smiles and nods, but Meiko didn’t buy it. “You two fucked in Beta, didn’t you, Noah?”

  Ruby’s already-wide eyes got wider. She stared at me, waiting for confirmation. I sighed and nodded.

  “I figured you knew that,” I said sheepishly. “I thought that’s why the two of you weren’t waiting naked in my bed when I got back from scoping out the reactor.”

  Meiko shook her head. “No, you just seemed to be really into cleaning Gamma all of a sudden. Almost as if you’d gotten your dick wet while you were away and weren’t thinking about us anymore.”

  My cheeks burned. “Shit. Yeah. You want to know a secret about Shay’s torture chamber?”

  Meiko watched me evenly. “It’s on Beta, right?”

  I nodded.

  “And that’s why the reactor is broken down there.”

  This I was not expecting. “How did you know that?”

  She shrugged dismissively. “I just know things, Noah. For example, I know Shay tried to convince you to abandon the rest of the harem and go back on our agreement.”

  I froze. Ruby let out a shocked little noise and fluttered a few inches off the ground. “Noah - is this true?”

  I rubbed the back of my neck. “I didn’t say yes,” I told both women firmly. “And I’m not going to. I’m not choosing her over the rest of you.”

  Meiko’s eyes were still hard, but her expression softened a bit when she saw how remorseful I was. “I didn’t say you had,” she told me in a quieter voice. “I know you wouldn’t. But Shay is a snake, Noah. She’s never going to stop trying to divide you from the rest of us. You know that.”

  “I do,” I said, folding my arms. “But I have her under control. Really.”

  Meiko’s lips formed a tight little line. “I know you think that,” she said in a warning tone. “But you don’t know her, Noah. You don’t really understand a damn thing about her. She’s an AI - a prison AI. She can’t be trusted.”

  Something reared up inside of me. “If it wasn’t for Shay, I wouldn’t be here,” I snapped, surprised at the heat in my tone. “I’d be dead if she hadn’t decanted my Core. I owe her everything, Meiko.”

  “Um, guys?”

  At the sound of Ruby’s titter, both Meiko and I broke off our conversation. The fa
iry’s lips quivered, and she kept sniffing in a way that made me think the tears were seconds away from coming. Shit.

  “Can we not fight?” Ruby asked, rubbing her hands together. “I know Shay’s not a good person, but she’s a part of our crew. I think you need to trust Master.”

  Meiko gave me a can you believe this? look - and when I didn’t rise to the bait, she rolled her eyes. “Fine, we’ll table this for now,” she said, shaking her head. “Just don’t come crying to me when that android bitch stabs you in the back.”

  “She won’t,” I said, turning to Ruby with a grin. “Because both of you will be watching my back.”

  “Or your cute butt,” Ruby said with a giggle. “Come on, Master - only one deck left to go!”

  She was right - the Reactor was just up ahead. I’d more than recovered; my android body wasn’t just stronger than an ordinary human’s, it had far more stamina. I whipped out the vibrosaw and waved it back and forth in front of my face, making humming noises like it was something out of a Star Wars movie.

  “I don’t understand why you do that,” Meiko said.

  “If you’d come from where I came from,” I said, flipping the blade’s power source on, “you’d understand.”

  Together, the three of us charged the final cell block. The fact that it was covered with even more of the gross stuff than the other decks didn’t matter - I cut through it like a knife through hot butter. We advanced slowly, the vibrosaw flashing through the neck-high growth like a machete through the jungle brush. Finally one slash unveiled a console.

  Meiko tapped my shoulder excitedly. “This is it,” she said, a shadow covering half her face as the blade’s light faded. “Cut all around it, Noah.”

  “Cool.” I eyed the mass clogging the reactor and swallowed hard. I really had my work cut out for me. “How will you two be helping?”

  “We’ll be keeping watch,” Ruby giggled, cocking her head to the side. “Master.”

  “We definitely won’t be watching you sweat,” Meiko snickered.
